Short Story
The Future Is Ours
- by Edward D. Hoch
- in Crime Prevention in the 30th Century, edited by Hans Stefan Stantesson (Walker, 1969)
Hoch was a mystery and detective story writer who sent two stories to the Crime Prevention anthology, so this one was published under his Dentinger pseudonym. In the story, a modern-day detective is sent forward to the year 2259 so he can bring back future crime fighting methods, but what he finds is rather less than impressive.
I understand that it can transport me three hundred years in the future to study techniques of crime prevention and law enforcement.
